If things weren't good in 2019, then they've never been good.

Seriously. In 20 years people will look back on the post-2008 economic frenzy like they look back on the Clinton years.

Have they ever been good? I come from a long lineage of people who had a parent die while they were still children. Sure doesn't seem like the good's been equitable or balanced.

The US Gini coefficient has been rising for 70 years, but life expectancies are high. So yes, better than ever for the median person, but also less equitable than ever.
